moving on

this is the most depressing pair of work boots i’ve ever seen. it’s in the middle of an abandoned parking lot next to an abandoned building i walk past on my way from work to the bus stop every day. the boots have been there for a couple of weeks.

the boots depress me for the following reasons:

1. they’re abandoned
2. they’re in the middle of a crappy abandoned parking lot filled with shards of glass
3. the raindrops on them resemble actual tears
4. they’re missing laces
5. they’ve got the world’s weirdest wear pattern on the soles

possible ways the person who formerly owned (or currently owns?) these boots could’ve worn out the soles in such a strange way:

1. stopping a car flinstones-style
2. log roll mishap
3. phenomenally huge ass
4. moonwalk mishap
5. sliding down the steep roof of a building (possibly the abandoned one?) with sandpapery roof tiles
